Why was it recalled?
After placement of intraosseous (IO) needle sets, used when intravenous access is difficult or impossible to obtain in emergent, urgent, or medically necessary cases, users may experience difficulty/inability to remove obturator, due to it locking to the needle hub, due to out-of-tolerance dimensions and IFU unclarity, which may result in new needle placement, which may result in delayed therapy
